Parents Kill Homeowner's Dream Colors. Part of the picture is cut off. You must double click on the picture to see the rug. This charming little house is located in Georgia right next to the railroad tracks. Because of all the soot from the locomotives passing by, the house needs frequent power washing. The homeowner not only wants dark colors to not show the dirt but also wants to match a rug with her favorite colors. The rug, as shown in the after photo, is a southwestern rug with warm rich colors. Coincidentally these colors are also historically accurate for this house. The homeowner was very happy to have her favorite colors displayed on her house in such a nice way until her parents came to visit. The parents manipulated her to repaint using the current yellow and white colors. They did this by offering to pay for the paint job and occasional power washing. A sad ending to some real nice colors.

Shingle Style Overlooking the Beach The site is a prominent one, on a corner lot overlooking the popular Pear Tree Point beach, so privacy was key to designing a comfortable residence for this young family: a home that provided private yard-spaces while retaining lovely water views. A Shingle-Style house with front, side and upper porches and interior spaces that invite leisure was a natural choice for this beachside site. By designing a series of outbuildings – a pool house with guest quarters, a garage and shed – that parallel the road, the pool and backyard entertaining spaces are nicely secluded. Separating the spaces transforms this 5,900 square-foot residence into an intimate and informal home. The buildings are of varying visual textures; the main house is clad in cedar shingle while the vertical board-and-batten of the 900 square-foot garage evokes a barn. The 730 square-foot pool/guest house, constructed of thin ashlar stone layup, matches the stone used throughout the project. ChiChi Ubina Photo
